BGDB Practical - Gastrointestinal System Development
Practical 1: Activity 1 | Activity 2 | Activity 3 | Activity 4 |
Mark Hill (talk) 13:05, 23 January 2019 (AEDT) This practical is being redesigned for 2019 cycle. This notice removed when complete.
Introduction
This practical class covers the development of the gastrointestinal tract. There are 4 activities to be completed during the 2 hour class. Equal time should be allocated to each class activity, approximately 20-25 minutes with 5 minutes feedback. Some activities contain links to external interactive components to be completed during each activity allocated time. Activities can also be completed collaboratively in small groups. All activities remain online for future revision purposes.
Please feel free to refer to your lecture notes, textbooks and research literature in completing these class activities.

Introduction

Specific Objectives:
- Understand the different contributions of the trilaminar embryo to the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) system.
- Brief understanding of yolk sac, endoderm development and folding.
- Identify the adult structures developed from the fore-, mid- and hind-gut.
- Understand the elongation, herniation and rotation of the mid-gut and appreciate the consequences of malrotation.
- Brief understanding of the development of the liver, pancreas and spleen and identify the functions of these organs in the fetus.
- Summarise the formation of the adult mesenteries of the gut.
Gastrulation, "to form a gut" is the generation of the trilaminar embryo (ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm), and is really just the earliest and first stage in GIT development, which is not completed until postnatal function has been established. In this class we will look at some key aspects of GIT development.
There will not be time today to cover in detail the development of the oral cavity and pharynx, some of which will be covered in the later practical Face and Ear Development.
Practical - 30 April 2018 12:00pm-2:00pm and 3:00pm-5:00pm on in WW G06/G07
